Ok so here is my 150 uk gal reef tank it has been up and running for 2 months just got past those horrible algae blooms and its settling down nicely now.
The tank measurements are 78"x24"x28" it is made by rena hence he odd measurements.
i am running 2 rena xp3 external filters, tmc v1000 skimmer and 2 10000k t8 lights with a marine blue and marine white.
i will be adding more rock as this year progresses and also setting up a sump as the wall behind the tank is the wall to the cupboard below the stairs so i am setting up a 4ft sump in the cupboard and running the pipes through the wall so it is all tucked away nicely. i will also belooking at upgrading the lighting to mh.

thanks for looking.

thanks ox that is the colour of the live rock it is actually a nice deep red colour although now u say it does look green from that distance, the rock on the bottom is ocean rock and yes that does have some green algae on.
 
Looks nice, dont see many tanks with a printed background, mostly just the standard black. Nice change of pace

how much flowrate you got in there?
 
i forgot to mention that i currently have 3 2500 lph EDEN 228 Powerheadwith wave action.
